About the Item
OSCAR
Oil on board
Size: 65.5 x 54.5 cm (including frame)
A striking and emotive mid-century figurative portrait composition that is characterised by expressive brushwork and a rich interplay of colours, executed in oil onto board and dated 1944.
The subject, a solemn individual, is depicted with an elongated face and angular features, exuding an introspective presence. Positioned against an abstracted interior background, the painting suggests a domestic setting with hints of a decorative element behind the figure, possibly a painting.
Loose, painterly brushstrokes fill the surface, as the artist has applied paint in a gestural, almost raw manner – with visible and layered strokes that convey a sense of immediacy and emotion. This technique creates texture and imbues the work with a dynamic quality.
The palette consists of an array of muted shades that evoke a subdued but powerful emotional tone, suggesting introspection or melancholy.
This oil on board is housed in complementary gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
